Yes, but I didn't see a waiver.

You wouldn't, it's not like it's a billboard planted so everyone can see
it. It's a piece of paper allowing someone to deviate from certain
FAR's and under what conditions they may do so.


Do you know whether there
was a waiver?


I wouldn't have any idea but I don't go jumping off half cocked assuming
there wasn't one. I assumed there was. They are easy to get and are
given every day for a whole host of reasons.


The point I was making is that we shouldn't
be laughing at fat people being thrown from horses, kids on
skate boards crushing their jewels or pilots making an
unsafe take-off.

If it's funny I'll laugh. I don't care if you're fat, retarded, black,
whatever. If it's funny, it's funny.
